My guess is that you have unfortunately stored each date as one numeric value, whose digits just happen to coincide with the date units' digits. This is rather a misuse of numerics, and is best fixed by importing that data correctly, rather than trying to "fix" it later. But you can convert to a proper DATETIME object if required:
N = 200701022359 % ugh
N = 2.0070e+11
D = datetime(string(N),'Format','uuuuMMddHHmm')
D = datetime
200701022359
Checking:
D.Year
ans = 2007
D.Day
ans = 2
D.Minute
ans = 59
Note that you should avoid deprecated functions DATENUM, DATESTR, and DATEVEC.

t0 = datenum(today) % probably you have datenums
t0 = 738721
t1 = datetime(datestr(t0)) % convert them to datetime
t1 = datetime
19-Jul-2022
t1.Format % check the format
ans = 'dd-MMM-uuuu'
t1.Format = 'uuuuMMddHHmm' % change the format
t1 = datetime

"Any advice how to fix it?"
  1. understand how your date is currently stored.
  2. use that knowledge to select a suitable tool to convert it to DATETIME.
